Magnetism is both a force, like gravity, and a form of energy.
It's generated by the arrangement of electrons within magnetic materials.
This arrangement creates a force of attraction or repulsion between these materials.
Magnetism was discovered by the ancient Greeks who found a naturally magnetic mineral called magnetite.
Magnetite attracts some metals.
